So, my creative hobbies cycle, and my fine art supplies have been gathering dust for quite a while. But this spring, an idea for a piece started very gently nagging at me until I couldn't ignore it anymore. Sadly, it decided it wanted to be something more ambitious than my usual style (anyone who's interested what that means can hit me up in chat for a link to a couple of my critter sketches), and way back when I sort of skipped over the usual training pieces one's supposed to do. So back to self-taught school for a while to do all the still lifes and pencil studies I've avoided until now, with a concentration on the hard stuff (shiny/reflective things, water, fire, etc. Sorry, Dis, really
don't wanna do a bowl of fruit.
)
To that end, snapped a pic of the piece of perpetual jewelry that I wear, and have for the past couple of weeks been working a closeup of the ring, and a couple of links of the chain that connects it to the rest of the piece. (And taken a couple hundred more pics of various items and scenery.
) This is how the first one turned out.
